Edwin McCain Lyrics

Album: Misguided Roses

I'll Be Lyrics

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful

 Stop me and steal my breath

 Emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky

 Never revealing their depth

 Tell me that we belong together

 Dress it up with the trappings of love

 I'll be captivated

 I'll hang from your lips

 Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

 

 [Chorus:]

 I'll be your crying shoulder

 I'll be love suicide

 I'll be better when I'm older

 I'll be the greatest fan of your life

 

 Rain falls angry on the tin roof

 As we lie awake in my bed

 You're my survival, you're my living proof

 My love is alive not dead

 Tell me that we belong together

 Dress it up with the trappings of love

 I'll be captivated I'll hang from your lips

 Instead of the gallows of heartache, that hang from above

 

 [Repeat Chorus]

 

 I've been dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead

 Tuned in, turned on, Remembered the things that you said

 

 [Repeat Chorus]
